I don't ask for much around here but this is a special occasion, here is the back story. My cousin recently had an electrical fire destroy his garage and many of the things inside it. When I stopped over to survey the damage he informed me that his insurance policy only covered the garage and not the contents so other than the structure all was lost including a nice 028 farm boss. In disgust he handed me his once prized saw and told me I could have it for a boat anchor. My cousin is a stand up guy that would give the shirt off his back just to help someone and used the 028 to cut fire wood for the needy/elderly people in his neighborhood. In a good will gesture I would like to repair his saw back to usable condition so he can continue helping others with it. This is where I hope the AS community will come together and Donate or sell me some 028 parts, if you have something to donate I can pay shipping or I will buy if need be. The parts needed include a chain break handle, top cover, air filter cover, and a starter cover. I plan on tearing it down tonight so the parts list may grow but for now this is what I see it needs. If you can help thanks if not than at least thanks for taking the time to read..

Thanks for the offer Parrisw but after closer inspection it appears to be a 028 super so I don't know if standard 028 parts will interchange. Here is my progress so far, all the covers are off along with the chain break handle and the heat bubbling on the fuel tank is sanded smooth and coated in epoxy.

Over all most of the damage is cosmetic but the recoil keeps it from starting.
Updates as they come.
 
if i could help,,i would,,,,but so nice to see everyone pulling together for him,,,,,,:cheers::cheers::cheers:
 
I have a top cover for a regular WB. If interested shoot me a PM ans I'll get it out to you. If you end up needing a tank just let me know. Also, I have a recoil assembly as well.
 
dam, That's pretty rough but burnt saws can be saved.

Keep us posted, i got rid of all my 028 parts a while back...

man a fire in the shop sucks!

if you asked a week ago i could have sent you every part you listed and a tank, all for shipping... but i sold all my 028 stuff in a lot. :cry:

sorry, man. i hope you get the old girl back together and get your cousin out cutting again. good on you for doin' it!
 
Hey, no worries. What's the series of part numbers for 028 super? Some must fit.

same series #. same saw minus the bigger p/c. maybe some other tiny details?
though you need to watch out for the early 028 with the solid handbrake, three bolt recoil, and weird muffler with welded nuts and a sideways mounting bolt.

edit: and the case has provisions for said muffler.
